I am trying to sign in using my old account. I clicked in sync "I don't have my device with me", then I put in my username and password and recovery key. But when I click "Next", it does nothing, and it doesn't give me an error message either. I tried generating a new key, still didn't work. I tried login to the website UI, it worked fine.

Hi, thanks.

I reinstalled firefox by completely removed all the profiles, and the problem resolved. I am not sure what went wrong.
